Fogarty gives Jones the chance to make his mark

The young English rider Craig Jones will break on to the international scene next season after signing for Carl Fogarty's World Superbike Championship team. Jones, from Northwich, will replace Garry McCoy in the Foggy Petronas Racing team, where he will ride alongside the experienced Australian Steve Martin. The 20-year-old impressed during three years in British Supersports, where he finished second this season after seven wins. "I wanted to put someone on the bike that is hungry and willing to learn," said Fogarty, the four-time champion. "Craig wants to prove that he can be one of the best riders in the world and I believe he is one of the most talented riders around."
